Skeeter Davis

Before The Sunrise

I guess I'd better try again to straighten up my tie again before I leave

The party's over the laughter's died

There's no one in this room but you and me

Though your lips are honey sweet

And you're so close that I can feel your heartbeat.

Tears would fill somebody's eyes

If we don't make it on before the sunrise

We could make excuses play with all late hours and the wine

Anything we say or do won't keep the sunup comin' up on time.

So I guess I'd better turn and go

There's one thing that you should know, Babe, you're the one

If not that I don't want you too

'Cause you know that you could stay until the dawn

When daylight is breaking when our home whenver day awaken

Tears would fill somebody's eyes

If we don't make it on before the sunrise.

Tears would fill somebody's eyes

If we don't make it on before the sunrise...
